We publish this week the call for a
Temperance Convention, to be held at
Lincoln on the 10th of August.
We do not approve of carrying this
matter into politics at this time and
do not agree with Mr. Sheldon and
Mr. Slaughter, the young men who
brought us the notice, that if the tem
perance question can only be made an
issue and brought into politics they
rle temperance men) are sure to win
ie. We knoic to the contrary, and if
the temperance question (as they call
it) or the passage of a prohibition law
is or could be made the test question
in the State this fall, the advocates of
that law would be badly beaten, Prof.
Miller himself says so, all good judges,
not biased by passion or prejudice,
Vnow this to be the fact.
A "Temperance Ticket" (as they
call it) at this time,
take votes from the
and give them to
Nothing less and nothing more.
Mr, Slaughter gives us a little paper
called the Temperance Ntirs, which is
very bitter on Dr. Miller, of Omaha,
and says he has announced himself
and his paper as against all prohibition
laws and plainly put the Democratic
party on the sideof unrestricted liquor
dealing. It then complains that the
Republican pajers never say a word
in favor of temperance. This is fa'se;
every Republican paper we know of
to receive, has favored wise and legal
restrictive laws on the liquor traffic.
It is the true policy and aim of the
Omaha Herald to take an open stand
against prohibition laws, because they
nre sure of the support of every dem
ocrat and if this were the isstre, they
would get a large republican or inde-iieniU-ntYote
to day in the State, and
Dr. Miller can afford to set back and
egg on foolish temperance men to
fprnranother party which will strength
n his"-arty and weaken the Republi
can party, and then chuckle to think
how easy they have walked into his
trap set wide open,and thebait scarce
ly concealed. Yes, if we were running
a Democratic or opposition paper, and
funning it purely fot political power
fir pecuniary gain, we should take just
the stand that the Omaha Herald does.
Dr. Miller is no mean judge of the
strength of the forces in this State, it
is a well known fact, that personally,
lie is a temperance man, he cares noth
ing about the prohibition of the sale
of liquor on his own account, or that
of his friends; but he sees and knows
. that every temperance vote he can
draw off frot?t ffie Republican party
this fall counts one for some epiosi
tion candidate of hrS own culor of
c loth. Xow go in nii'd. help the atiti
temperanee element if you wairt to,
- gentlemen, but let us understand the
Matter and i:t it on its true footing.

Fkemoxt, Xkb., July 1, 1874. f
To Sunday iScfiool Workers:
Important changes in the Constitu
tion and plans for working in our State
Association, require early attention.
The Kxecutive Committee have a
large work before them, in arranging
and carrying out the plan decided up
on at Xebraska City, viz: to form a
County Association in each County
not already provided with such an or
ganization. Can not Christian brethren in such
counties, begin the work without wait
ing for the committee, sending plans
and wants to them, and asking for
what assistance is indispensable V The
committee will respond to the extent
of their ability, giving all possible as
sistance and cooperation.
There are nearly fifty counties with
no County S. S. Society yet formed.
How many less shall there be next
year?
The form for Reports from schools
to the State and County Societies was
also revised. That you may know
what items of Statistics will be called
for, and so arrange your Records as to
be able to give accurate, intelligent
answers to each question, the follow
ing quotation from the Constitution is
made. Will County Secretaries and
Superintendents and Secretaries of
local schools notice the
to each of their departments?
desired to .ascertain:
1. The total population of his county
by Precincts.
2. Xuinber of persons between the
ages of 5 and 21 years.
3. Date of organization of first Sab
bath School established.
4. Present number of Sabbath Schools
(The above for County Secretaries.)
5. Xumber of Officers and Teachers
enrolled.
(. Xumber of Scholars enrolled.
7. Total enrollment.
8. Total average attendance.
9. Xumber of Scholars in Infant
classes.
10. Xuinber of Scholars in Intermed
iate classes.
11. Xumber of Scholars in Bible
classes.
12. X" limber of volumes in Library.
13. Xumber of Children's papers
taken periodically.
14. Xumber of Teachers papers tak
en. 15. Xumber of schools sustaining
Teachprs meetings.
16. Xumber of Schools open summer
and winter.
17. What hour held.
18. Amount of collections for Mis
sionary and other purposes.
19. Xumber of conversions during
the year.
These are simple questions. If you
are not now able to answer them all,
make your records so as to be able to
answer as many as you can next year.
Few of the schools in the State have
their classification so arranged as to
comply with requests in number 9, 10
and 11. Xumber (5, you see answers
them, and should be the sum of all
three. Xumber 13, asks for the num
ber of copies of children's papers taken
in your school, and supposing your
school has 10 copies of "The Sunday
Advocate" for 6 months, should read
10, not GO, which is the total number.
A corresponding number should be
given to number 14. Xumbers 15 and
10, changed to meet a single shool
should read, "Does j our school sustain
a Teachers meeting? Does your school
hold open, summer and winter?" Try
to be .able to answer next year with an
emphatic Yiis.
The above reports are required to
be ready at least one month before the
annual meeting. Blanks for this pur
pose will be forwarded to School Sec
retaries in ample time. A report from
one quarter or one half or even three
quarters of the schools in the State,
is of Little Value. Do not think your
report will do no good. Do not think
you will not be benefitted by sending
one. Let our watchword this year be
"a voice from every county, and from
each school in the county." County
Secretaries will confer a favor by send
ing me the proceedings of their County
Conventions, as published in your
county Xewspapers or by your As
sociation. Any posters, circulars, pro
grammes of Conventions, or Institutes,
and other appliances which you may
make use of from time to time, will
aid me in learning the history of Sun
day School woiji in Xebraska, for our
State Convention in 1S75.
Xow a word of caution" and encour
agement. Each County Secretary will
find it an invaluable aid in gathering
statistics to have a blank book in
which to enter every item of informa
tion concerning Sunday Schools in his
field. Fnter these items as you gather
them, never lose one. If you cannot
visit all the localities In your county,
impure of your County Superintendent
of Public Instruction, or the Clergy
men you know concerning them. Of
ten much valuable information may
thus be secured which otherwise would
remain" in secret. A Postage Stamp
and the free use of ink is also recom
mended!. I invite and most earnestly urge cor
respondence from every part of the
State. To effect all we want to ac
complish, this is necessary. We can
do much unitedly, .singly, but little.
Ask questionsinake suggestions, give
'information freely. Don't expect to
accomplish a complete :nd perfect
record the first month, or year: Persis
tent determination year after year;
will win eventually, but if we ever do'
succeed in bringing our Xebraska to
the front rank in Sunday School work
f? Y.'flt be in part, because ve believe
we are' doing the Lord's work to some
profit, ar.'d' therefore we expect we are
going to succeed".
Traternally your fellow-worker,
. - I. P. GAGE.
; Statistical Sec'y.,Xeb. State S. S. Asst.

OCR WESTERN LETTER.
Aftox, Fbontieb Co. Xeb., (
July 2(Uh, 1874. (
Ed. Herald: Having been fre
quently reminded by my "bettcr-halP
that I owe you another letter as per
promise, I will endeavor to discharge
the obligation. At the date of my last
letter we had been here but a short
time upon our homestead; having now
been here some longer, and having
from observation and inquiry learned
something more of the locality that
may be of interest to your readers, will
proceed to write first about
THE COUNTRY.
Let it be remembered that this coun
ty lies directly Xorth of Red Willow
county, and consequently nearer the
"big divide." between the Platte and
Republican rivers, at the same time
we have more water courses, 1. e the
tributaries of the rivers, have each of
them their tributaries, and one v ery
significant fact will enable the home
stead hunter to determine where he
will find the most timber. Unlike the
streams in the eastern counties, the
heads of our streams here are much
better wooded than the lower portions,
and at the same time the bottoms
grow wider and more extensive as
you ascend the streams.
THE SOIL
is some lighter in color than that of
Cass, Otoe &e.. which fact we attribute
to the short buffalo grass not offering
as much protection from the sun as
the higher grasses of the above coun
ties, that it is rich in productive qual
ities cannot be doubted by any obser
ver, for
our c itors
will compare favorably with other
portions of Xebraska, for even after
our long continued drj spell, our crops
of all kinds looked fresh and of good
quality, some fields of small grain suf
fered from the. drouth, but I believe
these crops will excell here in a fav
orable season.
OUR TIMBER
cannot be surpassed by any locality
West of the Missouri river. We have
an abundance of fuel, dead and dry, in
drifts and otherwise to last us for
several years, while our growing tim
ber is well fitted for building purposes.
In proof whereof, I would state that
I selected my claim while at Lowell,
from the field notes, and I have now
in process of erection a hewed log
house, 20X24 feet, one story and a half
high, and will not anywhere near ex
haust my building logs in completing
it. The timber grows eery fast and
is of good quality, thus making our
uplands, which are broad and level,
favorable locations for tree claims.
IMMIGRATION
has been very heavy toward this sec
tion the past season, in despite of some
unprincipled parties in Lowell, and
other points east of here, who harp up
on their thousand strings, to every
emigrant that they converse with, of
grass-hoppers, drought, sandy land, In
dians, potato bugs Ac, &c. We would
simply ask them not to try to shuf
fle off their ills and complaints upon
us, foe we can beat them in everything
desirable to a homesteader, the best
day they ever saw, even to that awful
pest horse-Hies, wllich I found very
thick on tho Platte bottoms, while
here I have seen but two or three this
summer.
OUR towns, .
are just starting, and better locations
for mechanics, with limited means,
who at tine same time wish to take tree'
claims, cannot be found, for the coun
try and towns are bound to improve
very fast.
Any correspondence in regard to
this place, or others within our knowl
edge, will receive all due attention.
OUR CURIOSITIES, KELICS &C.
On an elevated portion of my farm,
as also on another elevation on the
opposite side of Deer Creek, about one
half mile distant, we have found re
mains of potter', not as smooth quite
as that of our day, but much the same
shape. I have pieces of some twenty
three different vessels, all are from the
rim, and figured in rings, diamonds or
creases of different depths and num
bers. Immense bones have" been found
one a jaw bone, weighing fifty pounds,
while a Buffalo's jaw bone will weigh
but five or six pounds.
Please excuse this long letter, for
really our splendid soaking rain, last
ing most of last night, has so elated
me that I scarce know when to cease.
I remain respectfully,
Jl S. Child.
You do know efrough to get elated
vvben.it rains out there, Eh? We
hav'nt been elated (nor rained on) here
in ever to long.
C. Schultz, of the Cedar Creek Mills,
one of our best millers and business
men, called on the Herald Monday
and left us softie of the stuff we are
very much in need of.
Hon. Henry M. Atkinson, of Brown
ville, called on the Herald last week
in the Editor's absence. We should
have welcomed Mr. Atkinson most
hearth1, he is one of Xebraska's most
energetic and capable men.
George Smith, Esq., has gone Xorth
to see the Sioux and get some pine
lumber.
In view of the fact that the Grass
hoppers may and probably have done
some damage to corn in this county, it
has been suggested to us that it is not
too late yet to sow turnips, and if
properly housed they make very good
winter fodder for cattle and hogs.
The late corn, and" all corn not stripped
of leaves, might h& cut vp, old fash
ioned way, and thus save much fodder
to make up for the corn being short.
The hint is worth using.
The Herald "took" a trip down
country last week, and will write it up
in a few days.
We call attention to the notice of a
festival and concert, by Prof. Potter,
at Weeping Water on the 14th of Aug.
TVu; address of the Congressional Re
publican executive committee contains
among other facts some very interest
ingstatistics, which demonstrate that
the ordinary expenditures of the Gov
ernment excluding the interest on
the national debt and expenses inci
dental to the rebellion have been re
duced to a less amount than during the
last year of Democratic rule under
Buchanan in 1 800. This of itself is a
very striking evidence of the economi
cal management of our national
affairs.
